About of Frances Corrigan

Frances Corrigan is a Neurologist based in Adelaide, SA 5005. She works with people who need help with conditions that affect the brain, nerves, and how the body moves. Day to day, that can look like trouble with memory and thinking, ongoing headaches after a head injury, or changes in movement that make normal life harder.


Her clinic focus includes traumatic brain injury, concussion, and dementia. She also supports people living with Alzheimer’s disease, where memory and daily routines slowly start to slip out of place. At times, she helps with movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, as well as other movement changes that can affect balance, stiffness, or control.


Neurological symptoms can also come from less obvious causes. Frances looks after patients dealing with ear barotrauma and looks at how nerve and brain injury can happen after certain events. She may also assess neurotoxicity syndromes and necrosis, depending on the situation and the results of tests. In many cases, the goal is to make sense of what’s going on, then plan the next steps in a clear and practical way.


Over time, her experience has centred on these types of neurological issues, including head injuries and long-term brain conditions. She understands that every person’s story is a bit different. Some people come in after a recent concussion and just want to know what to do next. Others are managing symptoms that have built up over months or years, and they need steady support and regular review.


Education and training details aren’t shown on this profile, but Frances’ work is in neurology, with a clinical focus on the conditions listed above. There’s also no research or publication detail provided here, so it’s best to ask the clinic directly if you want to know what evidence-based approaches they use in day-to-day care.


Clinical trial information isn’t listed on this page either. If you’re considering treatment options and want to know whether trials might be relevant, the team can usually talk you through what’s available and what would fit your situation. For neurologic care in Adelaide, Frances Corrigan offers a calm, grounded approach across a wide range of brain and movement-related conditions.
